Common Core Assessment Packs now K-3 & Big Brother

I finally finished the 3rd Grade version of my Common Core Assessment pack. Geesh, there were a lot! You can pick up a copy in my TpT store by clicking on the picture.

The thumbnail generator seems to be down at TpT but you can download the preview.

Just like the K, 1, & 2 versions, it includes all the ELA & Math standards. You can read more about how I plan to use these {here} if you missed my previous post. Thanks so much to everyone who has bought them. I am so glad you think they will be helpful!

I am not sure I have as many 3rd grade followers so to try to reach more people I am going to run a promotion giveaway. To enter to win your choice of a K, 1, 2, or 3rd grade Assessment Pack, please spread the word about them with a link back to me on your blog, facebook. twitter, or pinterest. If you don't partake in any of that, you can still enter by telling someone the old-fashioned way. :-)a Rafflecopter giveaway

Okay, on to Big Brother...

This group is kinda BORING so far! I'm sure part of the problem is that with the coaches, things got strategic right away. Instead of naturally making alliances by friendship the groups were formed for them right away. Plus Big Brother has restricted the alcohol a lot more since that one year they were kinda crazy. I'm not sure why when it would be a sure way to get more interesting t.v.

I had to laugh last night (Showtime) when Janelle, Ian, and Ashley were trying to figure out how many days were in July and couldn't. Seriously?? Too bad Danielle the supposed Kindergarten teacher wasn't in the room. I would have liked to see if they thought to ask her.

Boogie just bugs me. He seems like such a slimeball! Shane weirdly gets little camera time. They say he works out a lot and doesn't drink or smoke.

Two of my favorite things, contests and Big Brother. :) I agree that I think using the coaches has totally taken away all the natural scheming for the newbies and now it is just a contest among the coaches to scheme and see how many they can get to their bidding. Oh well, we shall see what happens, maybe it will get more interesting. I do have a blog, but I just began and only have a handful of followers so thanks for the pin it and word of mouth method to tell about your giveaway!Think all night…..Teach all day

Suzy Q is not the only person that doesn't buy in with all the social media. I am too busy with home and school to do it, but thanks for the word of mouth entry. I'm moving from 5th grade to 2nd this year. I really need the 2nd grade pack please.

I started this blog a few years ago after FINALLY getting my chance to teach first grade after many years wanting to. I now teach 1st and 2nd grade Language Arts in a school that departmentalizes.
I have also taught 3rd, 4th, 7th, 8th, and 9th!
I am married to a terrific guy and have two boys in 6th and 8th grade.
